make sure there's enough text in a page

2007-12-04 Thread Alexander Sklar
Hi all, I have an issue I don't know how to fix. I would like for LyX to
make sure that each new section/subsection has at least two lines in that
page. That is, if only one line would fit in the first page the of
section/subsection, then that line (along with the section/subsection title)
should be moved to the next page.

 

Anyone has any thoughts/ideas on this?

 

Thanks a lot,

Alex.

split long equations and line spacing questions

2007-11-29 Thread Alexander Sklar
1)  What's the best way to split an long equation surrounded by
parenthesis, over several lines ?

What I've been using is unmatched parentheses (i.e. \left ( + none at the
beginning and none + \right ( at the end), but this has the disadvantage
of not producing big parenthesis. Has anyone had this problem before ?

 

2)  Is there a way to set the spacing to one thing for regular body text
and another for chapter/section titles other than going one by one :S ?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Alex

Thanks for your reply. My question was more on the lines of how to get
bigger parenthesis/braces when I need to split the equation:

So if I want to split this:
A = ..( LONG_TERM1 + LONG_TERM2)

I would like to get:
A = ...Big(  LONG_TERM1
   + LONG_TERM2  Big)

Thanks,

Alex,

Try the \vphantom command inside the parenthesis/braces, for example:

\begin{multline*}
\left(\vphantom{\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)g\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx} 
\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)\right.\\
\left.\vphantom{\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)g\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx}g 
\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx\right)\end{multline*}

\vphantom should contain the entire equation, which will not show, but  
will guarantee that the parentheses/braces will be sized for the  
entire content, not just the first line or second line of the equation.

Ive written a thesis using Lyx using a  report document class, but have a
few issues, I'm hoping somoene may have the answers. I've spent this morning
looking through the user guides and other files provided by Lyx but as of
yet haven't had much joy, also searched on the Lyx wiki.

There are large gaps at the top of the page when a new chapter starts, I've
tried altering the page margins but they do not apply to chapters? Is there
anyway of reducing this spacing?

When using the Table of Contents (TOC), I can't find a way of the References
being put into the list?

Also related to the TOCl; the Appendices just comes up with 'A - Title of
first appendix', rather than 'Appendix A - Title of first appendix'

Thanks for taking the time to read my problems, any help would be much
appreciated.

with greek letters.

I want to write this:



\underbar{\mu}



But I get compilation errors. Is this a LaTeX issue? How can I avoid it? I
don't really want to use underline instead of underbar because then the 
vertical alignment gets all weird.

Thanks!

back reference to citations

2007-10-26 Thread Alexander Sklar
Hi all,

Is there a way to find out about where a certain citation is referenced, or
at least know which entries in the bibliography section aren't being
referenced in the document?

Thanks,

Alex



RE: back reference to citations

2007-10-26 Thread Alexander Sklar
Wow. Thanks !! that's exactly what I wanted :)
I had to play with it a little, since apparently hyperref doesn't get along
well with algorithms. I had to put this in the preamble:

\newcommand{\theHalgorithm}{\arabic{algorithm}}

Anyway, thanks :)

The backref package does this. Usually, it is loaded together with 
hyperref, so that the back references become actual hyperlinks. In my 
preamble, I have the following:

%***
**
%** hyperref and backref 
*
% The pagebackref option must be passed as package option to hyperref, 
otherwise
% backref is not loaded by hyperref (\hypersetup is to late!)
%
%
   \usepackage[pdftex, pagebackref=true, hyperindex=true]{hyperref}
   \hypersetup{%
 breaklinks= true,
 colorlinks= true,
 linkcolor = hr_standard,
 anchorcolor   = hr_standard,
 citecolor = hr_standard,
 filecolor = hr_standard,

 pdftitle  = {Aspect-Oriented Operating System Design},
 pdfauthor = {Daniel Lohmann},
 pdfkeywords   = {AOP, Aspect-oriented Programming, AspectC++, 
Operating Systems},
 pdfcreator= LyX :-)
   }

% We also redefine the typesetting of backrefs.

   % simple backref command redefinition (not sure if it is necessary)
   \renewcommand*{\backref}[1]{}

   % redefinition of the actually used \backrefalt
   \renewcommand*{\backrefalt}[4]{%

 \par \vspace{-6pt} \footnotesize (Cited on page~#2.)%
 \else
 % case: cited on multiple pages
 \par \vspace{-6pt} \footnotesize (Cited on pages~#2.)
 \fi}


If you major goal is to  mark the non-referenced entries, you might 
consider defining not cited case different from me in the the 
\backrefalt command:

   % redefinition of the actually used \backrefalt
   \renewcommand*{\backrefalt}[4]{%

Thanks for your replies, I visited the page Jürgen suggested, and perhaps
this is a silly question but how do I add an optional parameter to a caption

Feature request: navigable ToDo list

2007-10-23 Thread Alexander Sklar
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone already thought having a navigable To Do list
would be useful. I'm thinking navigable just as labels are (you can get a
dialog with all the labels and navigate to their definition point by double
clicking). I'm writing my thesis and To-Do lists help me organize how much
content I want to put in a section, so maybe having something that lets the
user insert the number of pages he expects to have there or a simple comment
or something that would not compile to the final dvi, but would be stored in
the file would be a good idea. I guess I could do this with comments, but
they are not navigable. What do you guys think?

Thanks,

Alex

 

PS- is there a process to file feature requests on the wiki ? I didn't see
anything of the sort.

I'm pretty sure this isn't a LyX bug but a LaTeX limitation. It may be 
that \footnote needs to be \protected in this context, in which case it 
is a LyX bug. So you might try putting \protect in ERT immediately 
before the footnote, and see if that helps. If not, then it's a LaTeX issue.

overset and underset with subscripts display problem

2007-07-05 Thread Alexander Sklar
I don't know if this is a known issue, but when I try to have an underset
and overset with subscripts, while the output looks fine, the display in LyX
doesn't look right. In the example below, S_1 is overlaid on top of the
greater/less than sign.

I'm using LyX 1.4.3-5 on WinXP.

 

 

A\overset{S_{1}}{\underset{S_{2}}{\gtrless}}B

 

 

Is this a bug ?

 

Thanks,

LyX have squares among the many math symbols.
Look for them in the math menus/toolbars.

Or enter math mode (ctrl+m) and type:
\square for a square, or
\blacksquare for a black square.

Press the spacebar after the command, and the
command text should be replaced by the symbol.

There are a couple of ways to ge the symbol over on the right side.
You can insert-hfill to the left of the square, or you can put the square
in a paragraph of its own and make that paragraph right-adjusted.
